Ndlovu is now seeking a restraining order alleging that the model was verbally and emotionally manipulative and abusive towards him.
“Respondent and I were customarily married sometime in 2016
and we have one minor child together who is two years old. Prior to my
involvement with the respondent I was married to my ex-wife with whom I had two
children, one who is now at university and the other one doing Lower Six. I
also have another one who is 13 years old who occasionally visits. Over the
past 17 months my relationship with the respondent has deteriorated to an
extent that I can no longer have her under the same roof with me because of her
continuous abuse towards myself and my children from my first wife,” Ndlovu
said in an affidavit obtained by the Sunday News.
“On the 31st of August 2020, the respondent threatened to
poison me together with my children. She has made it clear that she can carry
out her threat upon my children at any time. Prior to respondent sending me the
WhatsApp message she had indicated to me that she can get rid of me by
poisoning me and I will be gone for good. The said threat was uttered when I
tried to engage her concerning her behaviour towards me and the children,” he
said.
Dhlakama admitted that their relationship has irretrievably
broken down with no reasonable prospect of the restoration of a normal marriage
relationship.
“I accept that our marriage is practically over. If
applicant is to remove me from the property he must do so lawfully and for
cogent reasons. I now sleep in a separate bedroom with my daughter. This was a
decision taken for my safety and also to avoid sexual imposition by the
applicant. In spite of the abuse meted out by the applicant he would still
attempt to have sexual intercourse with me but I will not be in a position to
entertain him sexually.”
“The applicant is a serial adulterer who I found at one
point engaging in relationships with three women. This has caused grave stress
to myself and emotionally. The applicant did not apologise for his affairs but
defended himself. In fact, he gloated about his affairs and insulted my
femininity and my capacity to please him physically as a wife.”
She said he taunted her in WhatsApp messages.“Go to your
talk clever cassanovas who promise to marry you and dump you. Lawe awumnandi
(and you too not sweet). Because of what or who you are . . . you’re not
inspiring to any man . . . deceiving portraying beauty but full of rotten
heart.”
And Dhlakama hit back saying: “F***yourself. You dumb barbarian. “Your p**** doesn’t do me really. You may think you didn’t want to sleep with me but I also didn’t look forward. Even back then, you were just a lump of dead flesh. And you are weak. I felt like I was being touched by a woman.”
In her ruling presiding magistrate Adelaide Mbeure ordered Dhlakama not to physically, verbally and emotionally abuse her estranged husband and also not to go to any place or premise where he would be employed or carrying out his business.
